Revisiting paravertebral muscles in European rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) and European brown hares (Lepus europaeus) (Leporidae; Lagomorpha)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Domesticated European rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) have long been chosen as laboratory model organisms. Despite this, there has been no definitive study of the vertebral musculature of wild rabbits. Relevant descriptions of well‐studied veterinary model mammals (such as dogs) are generally applicable, but not appropriate for a species ...

Local Scour at Bridge Abutments

Journal of King Abdulaziz University-Engineering Sciences, 1998
This paper presents the results of an experilnental investigation of local scour at bridge abutment models of three common shapes placed in laboratory flume with uniform sand with d)l) =0.775 mm. The 1l1uximum scour depths and extent of scour were determined corresponding to clear water conditions.

7000 Years of Aboriginal Mining at Sugarloaf Hill in the Riverland Region of South Australia

Archaeology in Oceania, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Silcrete and chert are commonly represented in Aboriginal archaeological lithic assemblages across large parts of the southwestern Murray‐Darling Basin (MDB). In South Australia (SA), these materials were sourced from a series of quarries located along the incised course of the Murray River through the upper Riverland region.

Studying the effect of partial blockage on multi-vents bridge pier scour experimentally and numerically

Ain Shams Engineering Journal, 2018
The local scour depth at bridge supports due to partial blockage on front of multi-vents bridge pier is studied experimentally and numerically. The existence of blockage such as debris and industrial wastes, leads to increase the local scour depth around

Scanning Parametric Sediment Echosounder as Tool for Underwater Archaeological Prospection

Archaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Underwater cultural heritage 3D prospection techniques, especially for remains that are partly buried in the ground, are only very rarely available and often can only be applied with considerable technical effort. To overcome this limitation, we evaluate a methodological adaption of widely used and available single channel parametric sediment ...

Study on the Mechanism of Local Scour Around Bridge Piers

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
Local scour around bridge piers poses significant challenges to the stability and safety of bridge structures. Local scour results from the combined effects of increased longitudinal flow velocity, the direct impact of the flow in front of the pier, and ...

Evaluation of Local Scour along the Base of Longitudinal Training Walls

, 2023
This study proposes a new empirical model for estimating local scour along the base of longitudinal training walls for granular riverbeds. The model’s performance was rigorously assessed through experiments conducted in an open-channel flume ...

Atypical Predictive Processing Is Associated With Sensory Over‐Responsivity in Autism

Autism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Autism is characterized by sensory processing atypicalities including sensory over‐responsivity (SOR), a heightened negative response to sensory stimuli. Although the neural mechanisms underlying SOR are not fully understood, SOR has been associated with sensory‐limbic hyper‐reactivity during sensory stimulation.

Experimental Study on Local Scour at the Monopile Foundation of an Offshore Wind Turbine under the Combined Action of Wave–Current–Vibration

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
Monopile foundations are the most widely used offshore wind turbine foundations. The experiments were conducted to investigate the influencing factors of local scour around the monopile under the action of wave–current–vibration.
